[edit] Image:Lakehurstcps.JPG

Regarding Image:Lakehurstcps.JPG, you have not listed any sort of source or licensing information for this image. Because of this, I have listed your image as having no source, which marks it for deletion in seven days unless source and licensing information is provided.

By the looks of the image, I'm guessing that you took it yourself. If you wish for the image to remain on Wikipedia, please consider adding a licensing tag for your image, such as {{gfdl}} for the GNU Free Documentation License, {{cc-by-sa-2.5}} for the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.5 license, or {{pd}} for Public Domain.SchuminWeb (Talk) 05:57, 2 January 2006 (UTC)


Jon's Reply:

So do I just add a tag? Should I add the PD tag? (The photo was taken by me) Jon Revelle 07:08, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

If it's a picture you took yourself, and you want to release it into the public domain, add the {{pd-self}} tag, since that also specifies the source of the image (that being yourself).
You also need to do similarly for Image:Lakehurstdemo.JPG, which is also marked no-source. SchuminWeb (Talk) 23:47, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for Adding Lakehurst Photos

I started the article but didn't have the full info yet. Thanks for adding photos. I lived in Third Lake for four years ('94 to '98) and visited the mall frequently. It would be great if you could post an interior photo if you have any. - isipeoria

Thanks. Unfortuneately I don't have any interior photos. Here's a site that does though,

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Skywhirl1.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Skywhirl1.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator.

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you have questions about copyright tagging of images, post on Wikipedia talk:Image copyright tags or User talk:Carnildo/images. 12:01, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

Jon's Reply

Um, didnt you see in the description that the photo was by Jim Westland? There's your copyright right there. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Jonrev (talk • contribs).

OrphanBot is unlikely to reply here, so I'll jump in. "Jim Westland" is an attribution, but it doesn't state whether the image is a promotional photo that can reasonably used under fair use, whether it's public-domain, or some other license we can use. Unfortunately, per [1], it looks like it's probably not licensed in a way that Wikipedia can use. Wikipedia must adhere to US and Florida copyright law, and it doesn't look like US law allows use of the photo here. --Interiot 16:05, 17 March 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Image Tagging Image:Sfgamcarousel.JPG

Warning sign
This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Sfgamcarousel.JPG. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Image legality questions page. Thank you. Shyam (T/C) 14:02, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Concerning Cajun Cliffhanger

Just wondering about the addition you made concerning modifications to all Rotors after the incident on Cajun Cliffhanger. I'm pretty sure ours (Luna Park Sydney's) wasn't modified after this incident, but I can think of a few reasons behind that: maybe it was only American Rotors that got the mod.

On another note: do you know how many Rotors operate in the States, and if so, where? -- Saberwyn 10:34, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

Jon's Reply:

Hello, I believe only American Rotors got the modifications and I think Chance was trying to modify all of the rides around the world but havent gotten that far yet.

The only other rotors I knew of were at SF St. Louis but I think its gone and there was another at SF Great Adventure but its gone too. Im not sure if SF Magic Mountain still has theirs or not and Im not sure but I think SF Over Georgia had one too.

    • Too bad it isn't there anymore... you could have picked up a photo and I could have compared it to mine to see if we got the mod. -- Saberwyn 02:13, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

Wow, you really don't have a life, do you? Going and tagging SOMEONE ELSE'S images of THEMSELVES? You Wikipedians take things way too seriously. *rolls eyes*

Go ahead and delete it. I dont use it. Stop stalking my edits and images. It's getting really irritating.--Jon Revelle 16:38, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

All you have to do is put {{PD-self}} or {{GFDL-self}} on the images you upload (assuming you made them yourself) and there's not a problem. Angr (talk • contribs) 19:39, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Jester's Wild Ride comment at Cajun Cliffhanger

Hi! I noticed you added a statement to the Cajun Cliffhanger article, stating "The Jester's Wild Ride is very unpopular among coaster enthusiasts and even children say it is boring.". First, thanks for the contribution! I can tell from your User Page that you're something of a Subject Matter Expert on SFGA, so I'm sure your input will be valuable. However, statements like that -- about the state of popular opinion -- need to be backed up with a citation or reference in a reliable source. Otherwise, we have no way of telling the difference between a legitimate relfection of what people think and someone's own personal opinion. If you have some kind of reference (say, an opinion poll, or a magazine article), could you please add a citation? Otherwise, please remove the statement. If you're not familar with them, you might also want to review Wikipedia's policies on Verifiability, Neutral Point of View, and No Original Research, as well as the guideline on Citing Sources. Thanks! --DragonHawk 22:05, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

I see you removed the statement. Thanks for listening, and for acting so quickly! --DragonHawk 23:14, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] image I removed from Pontiac Fiero article

This is in response to your message: "That photo you removed from the Fiero article was taken in 1986, hence the reason it is of lower quality." from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Series8217

Taking a photo in 1986 is no excuse of terrible lighting conditions and an unclear photograph of a subject. A photo should not be posted simply because it was taken the year that the subject was created (which it actually isn't, see below). That point is simply irrelevant. A lack of clear photograph for that specific model is no reason to post an unclear one. There are plenty more of these vehicles still around today you could take pictures of if you feel the article needs a picture of the coupe body style, or find other photograph's and ask the artist to provide permission for use on Wikipedia.

You could at least correct the caption for the model it actually is. It's NOT an SE, but rather a base model "Coupe". All SE's in 86 and 87 have the aero package; the car in your picture does not.

Here is a clearer picture of the 84-86 Coupe body style. I could release this into the public domain and post it in the article in place of the existing unclear picture. http://www.pbase.com/series8217/image/68176917

Thanks, Steven

You have been blocked as a result of your chronic violations of Wikipedia image copyright and fair-use policies. --Yamla 05:11, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

Are you fucking kidding me??? Most of those photos have been warned because I had forgotten the tag thing! They should all have license things now. And as for the Max Headroom thing, I screenshotted the video off YouTube and saved it by MSPaint, so technically, the file is mine.

[edit] Cedar Creek (Wisconsin)

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Cedar Creek (Wisconsin), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at its talk page. Removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, but the article may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.

[edit] Regarding edits to Six Flags Great America

Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia, Jonrev! However, your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove spam from Wikipedia. If you were trying to insert a good link, please accept my creator's apologies, but note that the link you added, matching rule invisionfree\.com, is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. Please read Wikipedia's external links policy for more information. If the link was to an image, please read Wikipedia's image tutorial on how to use a more appropriate method to insert the image into an article. If your link was intended to promote a site you own, are affiliated with, or will make money from inclusion in Wikipedia, please note that inserting spam into Wikipedia is against policy.

[edit] External links at Max Headroom pirating incident

Jonrev: I reverted your removal of the video link that I posted at Max Headroom pirating incident. The link was to a different video than the others that are posted there. Granted, it does use some of the same footage, but it offers a different perspective than the others. Before removing it again, please take a moment to discuss your reasons why at the talk page.
